by theEmother | May 6, 2013 | build a Mother of a Business, business ideas & thinking, EXIT execution, exit strategy, Finish Unfinished Business, so you think you're in business, the business model
Today I spent time in a meeting that I had arranged but was being led by another party. The reason for the meeting was to help the Business Owners “get clear”…
“Get Clear”about what? About their options, as opposed to pinging around from one option to another in the hope that one sticks!
This is what happens when you don’t know who to talk to, nor do you know how to find the right person. Mind you, it happens to all of us when we are moving into new territory!
When it’s a big ticket item like hanging on to 100% of your business that is on the cusp of greatness, where capital raising is required, there’s nothing more disheartening than to find you not only don’t meet bank criteria and the accountant offers you details on your situation but is not able to direct you much further, unless you’ve got family and friends with deep pockets, what do you do?
Fortunately I was in a position to assist these particular clients, hence the meeting today. Â The beauty about the meeting today was having a learned colleague who could ask all the right questions and have a pretty clear idea on how to assist.
It went so well that a proposal is under construction… Fingers crossed it all works out so they can win the “first prize” they’re after!
